Incredibly warm 800-fill goose down in a windproof breathable package.
While it might not be the jacket version of The North Face 8000-meter Himalayan Suit The North Face Himalayan Parka has enough quality 800-fill down and thermal insulation to be worthy of the namesake. What the numbers mean is that one ounce of this Hungarian grey goose down (99% pure) can expand to fill a volume of 800 cubic inches. That's a lot of high quality fluff making this waterproof breathable seam-sealed down jacket one of the warmest you'll find on a mountain or outside Fargo on a frozen winter evening. The North Face Himalayan Parka is also one of the few top-end garments to feature laminated baffle technology a special and exclusive design approach that welds down baffles without the use of conventional stitching. What this does is eliminate needle punctures and cold spots that potentially sap warmth in extreme conditions. If you have to go outside the Himalayan Parka offers some of the best frigid weather protection and insulated warmth you'll find in the industry.
